RID ‘Greene Harrrorp, is an academic soci- 
0 eich the control is vested in a Conroramion, 


reluctantly to relinquish his project, it was nev- 
not entirely without fruits. To his example 
snefactions may be traced much of that interest 
nd learning and Christian education, which led 
first efforts for the establishment of a similar 
ion in Conncticut. 
co nyocation of the Clergy of the Diocese, held 
92, under Suazury, first Bishop of Connecticut, 
e primary steps toward establishing the Episco- 
vademy at Cheshire; and this, though incorpo- 
with limited Dleced was intended as the 
ion for a higher institution, so soon as a char- 
ter conferring full collegiate powers could be obtained 
from the State. It was often styled familiarly The 
Seabury College. 

Bishop Browne tu, who succeeded to the Episcopate 


wae," 





























6 


in 1819, was enabled very shortly to perfect these de- 
signs. The charter of Washington College was grant- 
ed in 1823; and in the following year the institution 
was opened at Hartford, under the presidency of the 
Bishop. 

In 1845, by permission of the Legislature, the name 
of the College was changed to the present style, to at- 
test forever the faith of its founders, and their zeal for 
the perpetual glory and honor of the One Hony. anp 
Unpivipep Triniry.

To this brief history must be added some account 
of the internal organization and condition of the 
College. 

The Senatus AcapEmicus consists of two houses, 
known as the Corroration and the Hovsrt or Con- 
VOCATION. 

The Corporation, on which the other house is 
wholly dependent, and to which, by law, belongs the 
supreme control of the College, consists of not more 
than twenty-four trustees, resident within the State of 
Connecticut; the Chancellor and President of the 
College being ex offictis members, and the Chancellor 
being ex officio President of the same. They have 
authority to fill their own vacancies; to appoint to 
offices and professorships ; to direct and manage the 
funds for the good of the College; and in general, to 
exercise the powers of a Collegiate Society, according 
to the provisions of the charter. 

The House or Convocation consists of the Fel- 
lows and Professors of Trinity College, with all per- 
sons who have received any academic degree whatever 





——___—_mr!

in the same, except such as may lawfully be deprived 
of their privileges. 

Its business is such as may from time to time be 
‘delegated by the Corporation, from which it derives its 
existence; and is, at present, limited to consulting and 
advising for the good of the College; nominating the 
Junior Fellows, and all candidates for admission ad 
eundem ; making laws for its own regulation ; propos- 
ing plans, measures or counsel to the Corporation ; and 
to instituting, endowing and naming, with concurrence 
of the same, professorships, scholarships, prizes, med- 
als, and the like. 

The Cuanceuior is the Bishop of the Diocese of 
Connecticut, and is also the Visitor of the College. 

The Presipent. This officer, as his title imports, 
is the resident head and Rector of the College, and 
with the Proctors, who'are the two senior Professors, 
the Executive of all laws for the discipline of under- 
graduates. 

The Fettows. ‘There are six Fellows appointed by 
the Corporation alone; and six Junior Fellows, who 
must be Masters of Arts, appointed by the Corporation 
on nomination of Convocation; and these together 
make the Board of Fellows. To this Board the Cor- 
poration commits the superintendence of the strictly 
academical business of the College; of the course of 
study and examinations; of the College laws; of col- 
legiate dress, and the like; and also certain powers 
and privileges in recommending for degrees. Each 
Fellow and Junior Fellow is elected for three years ; 
but there is no emolument connected with the office, 
besides a provision for necessary expenses incurred in 
its discharge. ‘The Fellows, therefore, under existing 
laws, are not ordinarily resident. 





























The Dean or Convocation presides in that House, 
and is elected by the same biennially. 

The Proressors hold their appointments from the 
_ Corporation, and by lectures and otherwise, instruct in 
their several departments. With the President and 
Tutors, they also form a board of government and 
control over the under-graduates. 

Turors and Lecturers are appointed from time to 
time by the Corporation, to assist the Professors in the 
several departments of instruction. Private Tutors 
have no recognized character as officers of the College. 

Scuotarsuips. These are permanent endowments, 
held by certain under-graduates according to the terms 
of their foundation, and paying stipends of different 
amounts to their incumbents. 

Haus. ‘There are three buildings belonging to the 
College, which, in 1845, received the names of the first 
three Bishops of the Diocese. Srtaspury Haut, erected 
in 1825, contains the Chapel and the Library, Cabinet, 
and other public chambers. Jarvis Hau, erected in 
the same year, and Browne. Haut, erected in 1845, 
contain rooms for the officers and students; and a wing 
of each is the residence of a Professor and his family. 

‘'he Grounps, on which the Halls are erected, are 
an area of fourteen acres, laid out with walks, and 
ornamented with shade-trees and shrubbery. The 
site is elevated, overlooking on one side the city of 
Hartford, within the limits of which the grounds are 
situated, and on the other the Little River, (a branch 
of the Connecticut,) which forms their western bound- 
ary. ‘The river is suitable for boating and for exercise 
in swimming. 

The Lisrary anp Casinet. There are about six 
thousand volumes in the Library in Seabury Hall; in 


























g 


which are also the portraits of several officers and ben- 
efactors of the College. ‘There are two libraries belong- 
ing to the societies of under-graduates, containing an 
aggregate of six thousand volumes. The cabinet is an 
extensive collection of minerals and geological speci- 
mens, to which has just been added an extensive 
collection of shells. A valuable philosophical apparatus 
is distributed through the lecture -rooms of the several 
Professors requiring its aid in their instructions. 

Terms. ‘There are three terms in the year, of from 
twelve to fourteen weeks each; during which every 
under-graduate is required to be resident, unless under 
special dispensation from the President. 

Examinations.. ‘These are held at the end of each 
term, in presence of examiners appointed by the Fel- 
lows, from their own number or otherwise ; and every 
under-graduate is required to be present and sustain 
his prescribed examinations at such times, unless a 
special examination is allowed for sufficient causes. 

Vacations. The Christmas vacation is two weeks 
from the Thursday preceding Christmas day. The 
Easter vacation is three weeks from the close of Lent 
term. ‘lhe Midsummer vacation is eight weeks from 
Commencement day. 

Exuisirions. Junior Exhibition occurs at the close 
of Lent term; exhibitions of the literary societies, at 
such times as are deemed most convenient. 

Commencement. ‘The third Thursday in July is 
Commencement day. On the day preceding, the 
Corporation and House of Convocation assemble, and 
an address and poem are publicly pronounced before 
the latter. On this day all applications for admis- 
sions ad eundem come before Convocation; and the 
annual elections of Fellows and Junior Fellows are 








co) 






































10 


usually held on this day, or on the morning following, 
On Commencement day, candidates for degrees per- 
form appointed exercises in public; and all degrees 
are conferred and announced with prescribed forms. 

Decrexes. The Corporation is authorized by its 
charter to confer degrees in the Arts, and in the facul- 
ties of Law, Medicine and Divinity. Nominations 
for degrees may come from the Fellows and Profes- 
sors, or from the House of Convocation; but the can- 
didates are admitted only by vote of the Corporation, 
and all degrees are publicly conferred in its name, by 
the President. 

Degrees in the faculties of Divinity and Law are 
conferred, at present, either in course, honoris causa or 
on admission ad eundem. For the degree of Bachelor 
of Arts, the candidate must have sustained all his ex- 
aminations, and paid all fees and charges; and must 
be nominated to the Corporation by the Fellows and 
the Faculty of Arts. To proceed Master of Arts, a 
like nomination is requisite at a period of not less 
than three years after commencing Bachelor. Masters 
may proceed Bachelors in either of the Faculties, at 
the end of seven years, upon the certificate of the 
Board of Fellows, grounded on examination and the 


iy recommendation of the Chancellor and the President 


of the College. Bachelors in either of the Faculties 
may proceed Doctors in the same, at the expiration of 
three years, on the recommendation of the Chancellor, 
accompanied with a certificate of examiners, and a 
satisfactory thests composed by the candidate. De- 
grees honoris causd appertain to the Corporation only, 

Applications for degrees in course, must be made to 
the President of the College during Lent term.

The Instruction given in the preceding course of 
studies, is designed to be such as will promote habits 
of patient and accurate investigation. For this pur- 
pose, in the study of the ancient languages, particular 
attention is paid to their grammatical construction, to 
the composition and derivation of words; and the 
translations, especially toward the beginning of the 
course, are required to be as literal as the idiom of our 
language will permit. As the student advances, more 
freedom of translation is permitted, though in no case 
is he allowed to deviate from the exact meaning of his 
authof, which he is required to express with clearness, 
precision and elegance. 

In Mathematics, and in the English Studies gener- 
ally, the most approved text-books are used, and the 
student is required to give an accurate analysis of the 
reasoning of his author. After the recitation is com- 
pleted, remarks are made by the instructor on the prin- 
ciples recited, and their practical application shown by 
familiar illustrations. Lectures are also read on sub- 
jects connected with the main branches of study. 


UNEVERSLOCY SRD RN TS” 

For the accommodation of those students who may 
desire to omit certain of the studies prescribed for a 
degree, the following provision has been made in the 
College statutes. 

Students who do not propose to attend the whole 
course, may be permitted to recite with the regular 
classes, in such studies as, upon examination, they shall 
be found qualified to pursue. They shall enjoy all the 
privileges of the regular students, and shall be entitled 
toa certificate from the President, stating the time they 
were members of the College, and the studies pursued 
during that time.

GOVERNMENT. AND DISCIPLINE. 


The Government is administered by the President 
and Professors. It is designed to be mild and _pater- 
nal—appealing to the better feelings of the heart, and 
aiming to prevent, rather than punish misconduct. 
Punishments involving public disgrace are resorted to 
with reluctance. Ifa student does not conduct him- 
self to the satisfaction of the Faculty, his parent or 
guardian will be promptly informed of it, and if it is 
judged necessary, requested to remove him from the 
Institution. In cases where dispatch is important, the 
delinquent will be privately dismissed. 

An accurate daily account of the proficiencies of 
every student, and also of his delinquencies,—if any 
occur,—is kept; an abstract of which is transmitted to 
his parent or guardian at the close of each term. 











PUBLIC WORSHIP. 


Prayers are attended every morning and evening in 
the College Chapel, when all the students are required 
to be present. ‘T'hey are also required to attend public 
worship on the Lord’s Day, either in the Chapel, or at 
such places as their parents or guardians may desire. 















EXPENSES. 





For tuition, $13 per term; for room rent, $4.50 per 
term; for the use of the Library, for sweeping rooms, 
ringing the bell, fuel for recitation rooms, and printing, 
$4 per term; all payable in advance. Besides the 
above, there will be occasional assessments for dam- 
ages, extra printing, or other common expenses. 


31 


Students admitted to an advanced standing, unless 
from other Colleges, are required to pay $10 for each 
year of such advancement; and, for a shorter time than 
one year, in proportion. 

The students reside in the College, and provide for 
themselves bed and bedding, furniture for their rooms, 
fire-wood, candles, stationery and washing. Books 
and furniture may be sold, when the student has no 
further use for them, at a moderate reduction from the 
original cost. 

No Commons are established, as it is preferred that 
the students should board in private families, in the 
neighborhood of the College. Good board can now 
be procured for from $2.00 to $3.00 per week. 

By a regulation of Corporation, the tuition is remit- 
ted to the Beneficiaries of the Church Scholarship 
Society, and to such other necessitous students as 
design to enter the ministry. The necessary College 
“expenses of such, exclusive of personal expenses, for 
clothing, fuel, furniture, &c., are as follows: 


Board, from . $75.00 to $100 he year, 
Room rent, . aU) 
Use of Library, Peridance, 

Printing, &e., . » TE.00 


Assessment for public damage, &c., 4.50 





Total, $105.00 


To prevent extravagant or improper expenditures, it 
is recommended that all funds designed for the use of 
students should be placed in the hands of the College 
Bursar, who superintends their expenses with a paren- 
tal discretion. The present Bursar is Duncan L, 
Stewart, M. A., Professor of Ancient Languages.
